Stewart tells ABC Audio the idea to take the band’s catalog on the road was sparked by Chic’s Nile Rodgers after he invited Stewart to perform Eurythmics songs in London with a series of special guests.
Stewart says he thought, “Why not have some fun and do that?” But adds, “I didn t know how the audience was going to react.” Luckily, they “went nuts,” and he had so much fun he decided to expand on the idea.
Stewart is joined by three female singers for the shows, and while you’d think Lennox’s voice wouldn t be easy to replace, Stewart says it wasn’t much of a challenge.

Courtesy of Barrett–JacksonSammy Hagar is set to auction off his custom 2015 Ferrari LaFerrari at the Barrett-Jackson 2024 Scottsdale Auction, beginning Saturday at WestWorld in Arizona. And while he has had second thoughts about his decision, he tells ABC Audio that passing it on is the right thing to do.
“I don t deserve to own it anymore because it s too much car for me,” the 76-year-old says. “I mean, at my age, that car is so fast. You have to recalibrate your brain when you get in.”
Sammy believes that holding onto it is like keeping a classic piece of artwork.
“Things like that you shouldn t own. You shouldn t die with that in your possession,” he says. “You should pass it on to someone else that can appreciate it. That s kind of the way I feel about this car. It s that special.”
Sammy s Beach Bar Cocktail Co. premium sparkling rum canned cocktails will be making their Arizona debut as the “presenting sponsor” of the auction. Sammy
On a recent episode of the Radio Times podcast, Nicole Kidman opened up about how her height has affected her career. The Bombshell actor, who is 5' 11", said she was once told she was "too tall" to "have a career" in Hollywood. "I was called 'storky.' People would say, ‘How's the air up there?!' . Now I get, ‘You're so much taller than I thought,' and then grappling with how high my heels should be," Kidman said, adding that she frets about wearing heels on the red carpet because she doesn't want to feel like a "giraffe." The Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom actor also revealed that she lied about her height for an audition in Annie. "I had to talk my way through the door, 'cause they were measuring you before you went in," she said. "I was mortified."

In an interview with chaoszine, the former KISS guitarist reveals that he hopes to tour Europe this summer, although he has some problems to fix first.
“Well, there’s a good chance I can make it to Europe in late summer if I get my passport renewed,” he said. “I’ve been having issues with renewing my passport because I have some problems with the IRS, and it’s not really the passport bureau but the IRS.”
Frehley says he owes the IRS more than $50,000 and until he pays he won’t be able to renew his passport. He has attorneys working on the issue, but if they can t fix things he’s hoping to head overseas next summer.

This comes after Schnapp shared a video of himself and his friends holding up stickers that read, "Zionism is sexy," to his Instagram stories in November. Along with facing significant backlash for the post, some have started calling for a boycott of Stranger Things. "I only want peace and safety and security for all innocent people affected by this conflict," Schnapp said in the video. "I've had many open discussions with friends of Palestinian backgrounds. Those are very important conversations to be had and I've learned a lot." He added, "We all hope for the same things … Anyone with any ounce of humanity would hope for an end to the hostilities on both sides."
